God is a symbol, like Santa Claus, and as such is fine. As an atheist I understand that behind that symbol is a human brain, nothing more and nothing less. So of course fellow humans will hold themselves to high standards that are often violated. Too bad we could assembly under a flag of social unity and love, but humans are led by the rich who are terrified that we, the people will demand safety and leaders who care.
We live in a time of corruption and degradation, where our unity is being attacked and destroyed, so the forces of fascism can take over. Fascism, defined by me, is the permanent rule of a few oligarchs over the many, using fear, hate, and intimidation.
Watching Trump mouth the words of Christianity, including god and Christ and fellowship...makes one feel like vomiting, even this atheist. .
Reality is a hard master...we now cannot ignore the fact that America is now bankrupt, it can never pay, will never pay, its debts, and the minute that the rest of the world awakes to the fact we deliberately bankrupted ourselves to destroy the FDR safety net, investors will stay away and chaos will rule the streets.
